We love trailers. In only a couple of minutes they capture your attention, give you a tantalizing glimpse into another world, grip you, excite you, and leave you wanting more. If a trailer can accomplish that in such a short period of time it is a work of art.
This is why we like watching them so much. It’s why we made a website all about them. And it’s why we wanted to recognize the best 10 trailers of 2015.
Terrifying and brilliant. Some trailers perfectly describe a film.
This one’s great through and through. But the last few lines in particular make for an incredible finish.
So calm and intriguing at the start. But if your heart isn’t racing by the end of this you’re probably a robot.
When Ryan Gosling fumbles with his cigarette and pistol while on the toilet he earns this trailer its spot on the list.
Funny and classy. Nobody but the Coen brothers can pull this stuff off with such style.
We interrupt this list for a brief self-promotion: We made Trailer Town to be a great place for everyone to watch movie trailers. If you like the site, don’t be a stranger! Follow us for a hand-picked feed of the latest trailers.
We're on Twitter, we’re on Facebook, and we have a cool weekly email newsletter. See ya ‘round!

As scary as it is to admit this, we aren’t actually the biggest Star Wars fans. But this teaser made us want to be. This is as good as they come.
